This is actually very good news for the prairies and for many of the forest areas of western Canada!

[Phillip Harder @harder_water]

Amazing how quickly a forecast can change the headlines. Perhaps this is the start of pattern that starts chipping away at the moisture deficits but it take seasons of sustained precipitation for droughts to be "erased".

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

@hollyanndoan @environmentca @s_guilbeault SO the two provinces that he hates the most have reduced emissions and the rest don't? The two largest oil producers and with Alberta having one of the largest population increases in the country. Maybe agriculture and oil are not the problem?

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

Good article explaining what is really is happening! This boycott is likely to have the opposite effect! Maybe store closures, loss of good jobs (union jos), and less competition in the food retail sector (higher food prices).

Really?

Our national defense staffs 27,000 individuals, while the Canada Revenue Agency boasts a workforce of nearly 60,000. Who is Canada's true army?

Just ask Saskatchewan.

Just arriving in Regina. Will ask!

@FoodProfessor Question if Loblaws decided to close stores (ones who are not profitable) because of this demonstration. Less competition in the food retail would likely mean higher food prices?

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

SO this game has gotten serious! Now we have this game of not buying from loblaws, do you think it started with Singh's attachs on the CEO? So what happens if loblaws decides to close let's say 15 to 20% of their stores, less competition is good for prices, right?

Big Grocery profits in 2023: $6.35 Billion.

Up more than $650 million.

While you pay more, they make more.

Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre refuse to take on corporate greed. I won't back down.

Another good read!

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

This is a great read! Shows that innovation (zero and minimum till) started in Saskatchewan back in the 1980's has helped agriculture lower it's carbon footprint and increase carbon capture! Govs refuse to consider this because they can't take credit for it.

I don’t know why this report doesn’t get more air time. It’s more proof of what we already know. We are world class when it comes to growing food. These numbers further prove it. Why isn’t Ottawa listening? We are a writing a great story Stop demonizing Ag https://t.co/Y83bP4dnlr

Nobody else in this picture is looking up? Great photo op I guess!

[Melissa Mbarki @MelissaMbarki]

Maybe they see foreign interference?

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

Melissa seems to always happen to First Nations in these 3 provinces!

[Melissa Mbarki @MelissaMbarki]

In addition to this, the federal government gets to decide where to spend. Currently 3 provinces are underfunded - Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

I would like a picture like this of all politicians in Canada flying throughout the world throughout the year! It would black out the earth! Isn't leadership showing the way?

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

Great read! Explains what is happening and will happen if we don't listen. It used to be that political hires were at levels above the deputy minister level. Now they are hired and put throughout the civil service. By the way JWR also stated too much power in the PMO!

[Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇲🇩 @acoyne]

This is vague and windy, but nevertheless extraordinary — because of how damning it is, and because of who it’s by.

We can’t seem to get things done in Canada anymore: how can we fix it? https://t.co/fQxeryMYtg

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

Most grains and livestock are priced on the world or North American markets. Farmers do not act like retailers and add $ to their product to cover costs! These farmers are risk takers and go through the cycles that occur with world markets!

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

Great read Rob thanks for sharing! @RobertFife, @sunlorrie @ctvqp

I encourage everyone on here to have a look through this 2022 report from @globalfoodsecur to understand the “consequences” of our farming practices in five crops in my province of Saskatchewan and Western Canada https://t.co/3VBVUK6Bua

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

@nspector4 JWR said the exact same thing in her book!

[The Food Professor @FoodProfessor]

In recent weeks, was made aware many Federally-funded NGOs in Canada, focused on food, have received a letter from Environment and Climate Change Canada, led by Minister Guilbeault, asking the group to publicly endorse the carbon tax and rebates.

So unethical.

[keith lepoudre @KeithLepoudre]

Question, is the federal gov adding more gov employees to make these numbers look better than they really are? Anyone wondering how we got below Italy? Remember Italy had a complete economic disaster in the last 20 years?

The lions legacy!

It’s looking like March came in like a lion, stayed like a lion, stole the wife of the lion then marked the lions territory on the way out
